It’s becoming apparent that dozens, if not hundreds, of bodies remain on the 2 1/2 acres that once made up #ZionCemetery – where a public housing complex and pair of private companies now stand. @TampaBayHistory @PGuzzoTimes @FPANWestCentral @rcosullivan https://t.co/JAEGbtDmq6

To be safe, archaeologists will train their ground-penetrating on the land in question — one block past the cemetery boundaries. ⁦@TB_Times⁩ https://t.co/pijpS2XzKw

Many in the room sobbed when the findings were shared with the housing authority
“Those people are still there,” cried Clark Simmons. “Jesus Christ.”

Tennant: but if places don't exist anymore need to create models from scratch to reconstruct #lookingforangola

[FPANWestCentral @FPANWestCentral]

Tennant: 3D scanning, photogrammetry, 3D modeling can all be used to create spatially accurate 3D models of real places and objects

[FPANWestCentral @FPANWestCentral]

Tennant: as archaeologists, how do we get things from the real world into the digital environment? #lookingforangola

[FPANWestCentral @FPANWestCentral]

Tennant: reconstructions will be available on line for the public to explore #lookingforangola

[FPANWestCentral @FPANWestCentral]

Tennant: create immersive world where people can feel like they step back in history #lookingforangola

[FPANWestCentral @FPANWestCentral]

Ed Gonzalez Tennant: created digital reconstruction of Angola and Prospect Bluff as part of project

[FPANWestCentral @FPANWestCentral]

Baram: tabby house ruins at De Soto memorial date to similar time and being investigated by @NPSSEAC now, are they related to Angola?

[FPANWestCentral @FPANWestCentral]

Baram: historical accounts from decades later used when creating the Angola virtual reconstruction #lookingforangola

[FPANWestCentral @FPANWestCentral]

Baram: for digital reconstructions we wanted to be true to these ppl and how they lived their lives. Arch can inform that #lookingforangola

[FPANWestCentral @FPANWestCentral]

Baram: artifacts from these sites might not look exciting but each one helps to reconstruct the story of these places #lookingforangola

[FPANWestCentral @FPANWestCentral]

Baram: we know some survivors went inland, some to everglades, some to the Bahamas #lookingforangola

[FPANWestCentral @FPANWestCentral]

Baram: ppl who survived destruction didn't more to centralized location, settlement on Suwanee also attacked by US troops #lookingforangola
